Chapter 135 Military Inspection

Ning Chen was miserable after eating this meal.

Although there were many dishes, Quan's Eunuch had to prick each dish with a silver needle before passing it to the eunuch to take a bite first to make sure it was fine. Then Quan's Eunuch would take a chopstick to Emperor Xuan.

Ning Chen felt a little sympathetic to Emperor Xuan. He didn't even take a bite of hot food from beginning to end, and the food was very miscellaneous. He probably would have eaten away after finishing the meal.

And you can’t take more than three bites of each dish.

The ninth princess is surrounded by lotus leaves.

Ning Chen looked like a fool holding his chopsticks.

Because Emperor Xuan had to eat every dish first, and there were too many dishes... He didn't know which dish Emperor Xuan had eaten and which dish he hadn't.

If you make a mistake, it will be a crime of transgression.

As a king of a country, he is actually quite pitiful. He sleeps with the ugliest woman and eats the coldest food.

I heard that even when His Majesty favors a woman, a eunuch will keep a notebook to record what time it started, how many times it was done, and when the time comes, the woman must be sent back.

Once the time comes, the eunuch will remind...Your Majesty, it's time!

Sometimes Emperor Xuan met a woman he liked and wanted to do it a few more times... The eunuch would also remind His Majesty to pay attention to the dragon body.

Ning Chen was so lost in thought that he didn't notice Emperor Xuan looking at him.

Emperor Xuan had a question mark on his forehead?

Why is this kid looking at me like this? And his eyes were full of sympathy.

"Ning Chen, why are you staring at me?"

Ning Chen suddenly woke up and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I am full!"

"Are you full now? I remember that you can't eat more than this. Is it because the food doesn't suit your appetite?"

He remembered that when Ning Chen was in Tianfu Tower, he had a big appetite.

"Your Majesty, I just had dinner not long before entering the palace, so I'm not hungry at all!"

Emperor Xuan grunted and said, "Get out of here when you're full and go find General Chen."

"Yes, I resign!"

Emperor Xuan waved his hand.

Ning Chenma slips away.

Emperor Xuan raised his head, glanced at the Ninth Princess, and said, "Huai'an, you are Princess Daxuan. You must pay attention to your manners. You cannot hit people with a feather duster. Do you understand?"

"It's all Ning Chen's fault. What he said was so irritating... He called me a little brat and said I couldn't get married. It's too much!"

Emperor Xuan smiled and said: "Since Huai'an hates him so much, then shall I kill him?"

The Ninth Princess was startled and said hurriedly: "Father, I don't hate him... The prince's brother said that Ning Chen is having a hard time at home. In fact, he is also quite pitiful."

Emperor Xuan sighed: "That's right! Ning Chen's biological mother died early. At home, his father doesn't care for him, and his stepmother doesn't love him... It's really pitiful!"

"It was already late autumn when my father saw him for the first time. He didn't even have thick clothes to keep out the cold, and his lips turned purple from the cold."

"I finally made a hundred taels of silver by selling poems. When I got home, my brothers robbed me of my silver and broke my ribs."

The Ninth Princess frowned, "How pitiful! I will never bully him again."

Emperor Xuan smiled and said, "Then you can support him in the future."

Ninth Princess thought for a while, "Okay, I will protect him from now on and prevent others from bullying him."

...

On the other side, Ning Chen left the palace and rode to the general's mansion.

"Ning Chen, have you had lunch?"

Ning Chen nodded, "I've eaten! Old General, Your Majesty asked me to come and find you. What is it?"

"You are about to go on an expedition. I will help you order a thousand troops. You must show up and get to know everyone."

Ning Chen nodded, "Okay!"

"I have limited legs and feet, so I asked Yuan Zhong to take you... On this expedition, Yuan Zhong will also go with you and stay by your side!"

"Also, before you go on the expedition, take the time to come to my place. I have something to tell you."

Ning Chen smiled and hummed!

Immediately, under the leadership of Qi Yuanzhong, he headed for the northern suburbs military camp.

Fifty thousand city guards were stationed around the capital.

These 50,000 people were divided into two military camps, one in the south and one in the north, responsible for guarding the imperial city.

The two rode for about an hour and arrived at the military camp in the northern suburbs.

Along the way, there were no fewer than a dozen sentries, both overt and covert.

When the two of them arrived in front of the military camp, a burly, dark-skinned and rough-skinned soldier had already received the news from the scouts and was waiting in advance.

"Hahaha...Old Qi!"

As soon as the two dismounted, the other party stepped forward and gave Qi Yuanzhong a bear hug. It seemed that they were old acquaintances.

Qi Yuanzhong patted the other party on the back, and after delivering it, he smiled and said: "Lao Yuan, let me introduce to you, this is..."

"I know that Supervisor Si Ning Yinyi, the famous Poet Immortal, is the general of this Northern Expedition. The imperial decree came down yesterday!"

"My subordinate Yuan Long, the captain of the Wei Long Army, has met General Ning."

"I've always heard that Ning Yinyi is a genius, but I didn't expect that he is so young. He is obviously a baby, hahaha..."

Qi Yuanzhong's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Yuan Long, don't be so presumptuous!"

Yuan Long stopped laughing, leaned over and clasped his fists, "Don't blame Ning Yinyi. The army is full of rough guys. Sometimes they speak uncontrollably. Please forgive me."

Ning Chen smiled silently.

He knew this was inevitable. Soldiers only believe in the strong. It was normal for him, a fifteen-year-old boy, to be looked down upon.

"It doesn't matter!"

Ning Chen took a step forward as he spoke, and with a lightning strike, he grabbed Yuan Long's arm, twisted his body, and threw Yuan Long to the ground with a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw.

boom! ! !

Yuan Long weighed two hundred kilograms, and the ground was shaking when he hit it.

Qi Yuanzhong was stunned.

The guard at the gate of the military camp was shocked and his eyes widened.

Yuan Long was knocked unconscious and almost passed out.

Before he could react, his body froze and a sharp dagger was placed on his neck.

Ning Chen looked at him with a smile, "Captain Yuan, don't underestimate the baby. On the battlefield, if you underestimate any opponent, you may lose your life."

Yuan Long was not convinced, "I just didn't pay attention."

"Lions fight rabbits with all their might... On the battlefield, your carelessness will not only bring danger to yourself, but also to your comrades."

"Once you fall, the enemy will not listen to your excuses... If I were your enemy, you would be dead now."

Ning Chen slowly put away the knife, stood up and stretched out his hand to Yuan Long.

Yuan Long was very unconvinced, stood up by himself, and patted the dirt on his body.

Qi Yuanzhong said in a deep voice: "Yuan Long, watch your attitude."

Ning Chen waved his hand and said: "Captain Yuan must think that I won unfairly just now. Let's do this... I'll give you another chance. We'll have another match later. If you fall down, you lose. Whoever loses, please drink!"

"Okay!"

Yuan Long agreed immediately. He didn't believe that Ning Chen, with his small body, could knock him down without a sneak attack.

Ning Chen smiled and said: "Let's go, go see my soldiers first, say hello, and then we'll compete again."

Yuan Long nodded, "Ning Yinyi, please!"

A thousand soldiers had already lined up on the parade ground waiting.

These thousand people were all elite soldiers, carefully selected by General Chen. Just standing there, the fierce aura was overwhelming.
